Integrating a co-rotating twin-screw extruder in an injection moulding mach
ine opens up new perspectives for the direct processing of plastics in the
form of raw material components plus additives and/or fillers and/or reinfo
rcing materials. This then gives the processor greater freedom during proce
ssing and greater flexibility when it comes to improving both the component
structure and the quality of the moulded part, as well as demonstrably low
er production costs.
